Time-dependent thermal inactivation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) present in the extract of mung beans at different periods of germination showed biphasic kinetics in the 12-h germinated seeds but single exponential decay at 24 h of germination. The glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G-3-P) concentration in the deproteinated extracts was found to increase with period of germinati...

The low-temperature plasma process is an advanced technology that has recently enjoyed great popularity due to its eco-friendly nature and antibacterial efficacy. Plasma-activated water (PAW)—a product of non-thermal reaction with water, containing a rich variety highly reactive oxygen nitrogen species (RONS), green prospective solution for decontamination microorganisms in wide range biotechno...

Thermal inactivation of peroxidase (POD) in an extract of Picea omorika (Pancić) Purkyne needles initiated by heat treatment was studied. This is the first study of this kind on a conifer species. Non-linear regression analysis was applied on the inactivation rate data, combining Mitscherlich and Arrhenius equations, treating time and temperature simultaneously as explaining variables. We deter...

Background: Lactoperoxidase (LPO) is one of the most heat-stable enzymes in milk and its inactivation has been proposed for monitoring thermal processes. The aim of this study was to provide information on activity and thermal inactivation behavior of LPO in Iranian cow and buffalo milk and whey. Methods: Sixty cow and buffalo milk samples were collected. The LPO activity was measured using spe...

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the effects of pH, heat, and Ca ions on the -amylase activities in a commercial amylolytic enzyme (Tyazyme L300), used for apple juice processing. Kinetics of thermal inactivation was studied in acetate and citrate/phosphate buffers at different temperatures (55–70 °C) and enzyme concentrations (0.276 and 0.552 mL/100 mL). Maximum -amylase activity was obse...
